3.5 Updating the Unit’s Firmware

To upgrade the X5’s firmware, click the Advanced Setup icon at the top of the main interface page and then follow these steps.

1 You must first download the upgrade file (for example, from our web site or a floppy disk). Save it under a filename with a

.dlf extension.

2 Click the Firmware Update button and then click Image Download. The unit will restart itself and switch into download mode.

3 Click Browse and select the upgrade file.

4 Click Upload. The modem will restart itself when the upload is done. The front panel LINK light will go off during the rebooting process. Then it will blink and finally remain on steady; the process is now complete. Note: This process may take up to a minute.

VERY IMPORTANT!

Do not turn off the X5 or unplug it while you are upgrading the firmware or while the unit is in download mode.

5 Close and re-open your Web browser and resume your Internet session.
